A world-famous museum, reimagined

We believe travel has the power to bring people together and change the world. It’s why we started our Community Partnership Program, collaborating with local nonprofits to give travelers a way to make a lasting impact on the communities they visit. Through this program, you can be part of an exciting project from the Statue of Liberty-Ellis Island Foundation: creating the new Ellis Island National Museum of Immigration.

The project

The Ellis Island Museum Reimagined campaign funds a much-needed overhaul of the museum. This includes over 100,000 square feet of exhibits, people-centered storytelling, accessibility upgrades, and 
community event space.

Your support

Help the museum continue to tell immigrants’ stories through a tax-deductible donation to the Ellis Island Museum Reimagined campaign. Your generosity will influence the lives of 3 million people who visit the museum each year.

Our thanks

By becoming a Steward with a gift of $18.92, your name will be permanently displayed in the historic Baggage Room at Ellis Island. The foundation is also offering a commemorative medallion to donors who give at least $35.

Ellis Island was an eye-opener. I did not understand how hard the 
immigrants had it to enter the country. I learnt so much.
